Mo Youxian was getting more and more excited as he spoke when he suddenly felt a punch on his back. He turned around and saw Yu Xiu'e glaring at him angrily. "The kids are all grown up now, what nonsense are you spouting? Shameless old man! We're talking about serious matters!"
Mo Youxian felt embarrassed. He recalled his youthful vigor and couldn't help but get carried away. When his wife reminded him, he realized he had lost his composure and quickly composed himself. He then gave Mo Yuan directions and told him that he still needed to go and discuss it with Mo Youxian.
Seeing his parents bickering, Mo Yuan pretended not to hear and quietly left the room. "No way," he thought, "I have to go find Mo Youxian. That guy is a real treasure! The village really can't do anything without him." Without hesitation, Mo Yuan headed towards Mo Youxian's house. All the way, he pondered how to best utilize Mo Youxian's connections.
Upon arriving at Mo Youxian's house, Mo Yuan gently knocked on the door. After the door opened, Mo Youxian warmly invited him inside and offered him tea.
Mo Yuan got straight to the point: "Third Uncle, I came to see you to discuss our factory construction. We are facing many problems and need someone with experience and connections to help us. And you, Uncle Youxian, are that kind of person. So, the capable should do more, and I have no choice but to come here three times to visit you, hoping that you can come out of retirement and help me solve these problems."
Mo Youxian smiled upon hearing Mo Yuan's words. He knew that although Mo Yuan probably wouldn't visit unless he needed something, he was still quite pleased to receive such praise.
Although he knew the other party might want something from him, Mo Yuan's words did make him feel great.
However, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hey kid, what are you up to? We only parted ways half a day ago, didn't we already agree to work together to build a factory? Why are you suddenly here again? And saying so many strange things?"
Mo Yuan smiled and continued, "Third Uncle, please don't misunderstand! I just think you're so amazing, that's why I praised you so much. Besides, I do need your help with some things. You see, the village can't handle anything, big or small, without your personal intervention. It would be difficult to solve any problems." After saying this, Mo Yuan looked at Mo Youxian sincerely, his eyes filled with expectation.
Hearing this, Mo Youxian's face flushed slightly. He waved his hand somewhat embarrassedly and said, "Alright, alright, stop praising me. I wouldn't dare compare myself to Zhuge Liang! Just say what you want to say directly, don't beat around the bush." His eyes revealed his trust and concern for Mo Yuan, but also a hint of helplessness.
That kid is so cunning; all he does is boss this old man around and doesn't know how to respect his elders at all!
However, he knew Mo Yuan was right; the village's situation was indeed very troublesome, and without his help, it would be difficult to resolve. So, he readily agreed, "Alright, since you trust me so much, just tell me what it is, and I'll help if I can. But I'm getting old, and there might be some things I can't do well, so please bear with me."
Mo Yuan nodded, offered another round of praise, and then explained his purpose.
"It's like this, Third Uncle. The things we agreed on before are naturally without any problems, but there's something else I've thought of and would like to ask for your help. I'd like to hear your opinion. You're very knowledgeable, so could you analyze for me whether what I'm saying is reliable?"
Seeing Mo Youxian's curious expression, Mo Yuan took a sip of the tea beside him, cleared his throat, and prepared to tell Mo Youxian what had happened again!
